those calipers look awkward and awesome at the same time! haha.
Awkward because the giant spokes of the stock wheel hides them way toom much? Awesome because my car is full of awesomeness? (yes)
The tires are Cooper Zeon ZPT, stock size (what is it? 215/45/18) They are all-seasons and mud/snow rated. So far this winter I am pleased with how they have performed, maybe not the best but sufficient, and they were dirt cheap. When I bought the car used from the dealer they had put two new ones on the front, so as soon as I bought it I replaced the rears as well. They only have 7,000+ miles on them, so I think the thick tread is really helping me. I've never seen tire tracks in the snow where the tread is plainly visible as it is with these tires. They really cut through the slush.jri4, what tires do you have?
